OBJECTIVES: Patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are repeatedly affected by oral diseases or problems, including dental caries and periodontal diseases (PDs). Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis are chronic inflammatory destructive diseases that share many similarities. The objective of this study was to assess oral health status including examination of hard dental tissues and periodontium in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and compare the results with healthy controls. We hypothesize some interlink between oral diseases and RA. METHODS: The epidemiological case-control study involved a total of 64 subjects divided into an experimental group (14 rheumatoid arthritis cases) and a control group (50 healthy individuals). Disease activity in the subjects with RA was assessed by the Disease Activity Score (DAS28). The number of Decayed, Missing and Filled Teeth (DMFT) and Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Need (CPITN) as a basic epidemiological oral health indexes were recorded. Finally, the data were analysed statistically. RESULTS: The RA patients (19.21, SD = 6.95) showed a higher caries index level measured by DMFT than the control group (17.72, SD = 6.19); the difference was not statistically significant (U = 387.5, p = 0.547). In terms of a mean number of teeth decayed (p = 0.078), teeth filled due to caries (p = 0.397), and missing teeth (p = 0.126), the two groups were not significantly different. In terms of periodontal health, a significant difference was observed between the two groups concerning the CPI maximum score (p = 0.003). The RA patients showed higher prevalence of periodontitis than the controls. CONCLUSIONS: A complete basic oral examination, along with an oral health instruction including adequate oral and dental hygiene, is crucial to prevent dental caries and periodontal diseases and associated complications in RA patients, since they appear to be more vulnerable than the non-RA population.

BACKGROUND: The Roma population is a genetically isolated population with a shared origin, totaling between 10 to 14 million individuals worldwide, stemming from a limited number of "genetic founders". Roma individuals exhibit specific hereditary diseases, often stemming from recessive genetic variants due to a higher degree of consanguinity, with recent molecular-genetic investigations shedding light on several conditions prevalent within the Czech Roma population. However, an overview of stomatological issues in diagnosing such diseases proves challenging, leading to frequent underdiagnosis or misdiagnosis. METHODS: The contribution monitors the clinical description, typical symptoms and treatment options including dental abnormalities in rare genetic diseases in the Roma population which are treated in ERN CRANIO centre at Motol University Hospital in Prague. RESULTS: Our research provides examples of autosomal recessive diseases, which can be molecularly confirmed, and prevalent within the Roma community. These include congenital cataract syndrome, facial dysmorphism and demyelinating neuropathy, non-syndromic prelingual e.g. deafness with GJB2 gene impairment, and myasthenic syndrome. CONCLUSION: Our report aimed to provide a systematic review of dental phenotypes which can relate to Czech Roma's rare genetic disorders therapy including dental treatment. Understanding is important for preventing unterdiagnosis or treatment for the patients affected review of observed (Fig. 6, Ref. 27).

Periodontal disease is inflammation of the gums and without good oral hygiene, it can progress to periodontitis. Oral hygiene might be related to a patient's health literacy (HL), defined as ability to gain access, understand, and use information to promote and maintain good health. The aim of our study is to examine the associations of HL with indicators of periodontal disease. A cross-sectional study on 1117 adults (36.2% males; mean age = 36.4, SD = 14.2) attending dental hygiene treatment was conducted. Data on demographics, socioeconomic status, and nine domains of HL (Health Literacy Questionnaire, HLQ) were collected by questionnaire, and Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs (CPITN) was established by the dental hygienist. Data were analysed using t-tests and logistic regression. Respondents with periodontal disease (N = 152) had statistically significantly lower levels of HL in seven out of nine HLQ domains compared to intact patients (N = 818) (t from 3.03 to 4.75, p < 0.01). Association of higher HL in seven domains with lower chance of diagnosed periodontal disease remain significant even after adjustment for age, gender and educational attainment (adjusted ORs 0.55-0.67, p < 0.05). Our findings confirm that an individual's lower HL is significantly associated with higher chance of periodontal disease incidence, specifically among Slovak adults attending oral hygiene clinics. HL might be a promising factor in the improvement of oral health in this population, worthy of consideration in intervention and preventive activities.

BACKGROUND: Oral health strongly affects overall health and is related to many factors. The aim of our study was to analyse oral health related behaviours (OHRBs) and gum bleeding among Slovak adolescents and assess the effect of socioeconomic factors on the outcomes. METHODS: Data from the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children study (HBSC) were used (N = 8896, age range = 10-16 years, M = 13.4; SD = 1.4; 50.9% boys). Sociodemographic and socioeconomic indicators and frequency of OHRBs (dental hygiene, toothbrush changing, preventive check-up) and gum bleeding were collected. Effects of sociodemographic and socioeconomic variables on outcome variables were analysed by binary logistic regression. RESULTS: We found that prevalence of OHRBs slightly decreases with age, and worse outcomes were reported by boys compared to girls (OHRB odds ratio range 0.45-0.75, (95% C.I. range 0.40-0.91), gum bleeding 1.38 (95% C.I. 1.19-1.61), p < 0.05). OHRBs were in most cases significantly associated with socioeconomic variables, lower affluence predicts worse outcomes (odds ratio range 0.76-0.88 (95% C.I. range 0.68-0.96), p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Our study provides representative findings on ORHBs in Slovakia and shows important associations of socioeconomic factors related to adolescents' oral health issues.

Predmed zdelenia: Autori v prehľadovej práci opisujú orálny lichen planus ústnych slizníc (OLP). Pojednávajú o klasifikácii tohto ochorenia, ktorá bola prvotne uvedená pre dermatologickú prax. Opisujú klasifikáciu podľa Andreadisa, ktorá je osvedčená v stomatologickej praxi v súvislosti s klinickým delením gingivitis desquamativa. V praxi pre potreby orálnej medicíny sa používa klinické delenie OLP na tri formy: retikulárna forma, plak forma a erozívna forma.
Aim of study: In the work the authors describe oral lichen planus of the oral mucosa (OLP). They discuss the classification of this disease, which was first listed for dermatological practice. They describe the Andreadis classification, which is proven in dental practice in connection with the clinical division of gingivitis desquamativa. In practice, for the needs of oral medicine the OLP clinical division is used in three forms: reticular form, plaque form and erosive form.
